Our Limited Warranty
We offer a limited warranty with all of our post products, which is valid for 25 years after purchase. If, within 25 years, a post that we produced suffers damage from termites or fungal decay, making it unfit as a fence post, the owner will be given a new post to replace the harmed one.
Read the full warranty and its limitations for details. Our guarantee does not cover the appearance of the post, although prior to installation, we will exchange posts if their appearance is unsatisfactory.

Save Money With Posts That Last
Posts may be an up-front investment for your business, but you can rest easy when you choose our brand because you will not have to replace them for many years to come. Our posts are of great value because they are produced by a company dedicated to these factors:
- Standards: All posts are made from southern pine and pressure treated to standard C 16 of the American Wood Preservers' Association.
- Quality Control: We are one of the few Florida treating plants equipped with the latest analytical equipment for on-site evaluation of preserved posts. Periodic sampling of posts will be analyzed to ensure compliance with industry standards and those of the Wolmanized wood program.
- Branded: Our posts are branded with the Wolmanized name, and we identify them with our own permanent marking. We are proud of the products we sell and not reluctant to put our brand on them. You can identify our posts by the specific markings on the top or bottom of the post.
- Dependable: We have become one of the largest manufacturers of CCA posts in Florida, and we have produced fence posts since 1946. That's because Florida cattlemen can depend on our posts.
Our Tips for Purchasing Posts
Know what you're purchasing before you sign on the dotted line. Here are some tips from our experts to consider before purchasing posts.
- Check the sales invoice, tag, or other information. You should be able to determine the name of the company that produced the post, the method of treatment (pressure or non-pressure), the name of the preservative and its retention level, and an indication that the treatment meets AWPA Standard C16.
- Check the count. If you purchased bundles, count posts in sample bundles to make certain you received the quantity you are paying for. Many suppliers have inconsistent bundle counts. Florida Fence Post Company, Inc. offers standardized bundles with a set number of posts in each.
Check the size of the posts. Fence post sizes are determined by measuring the narrower end (the "top" of the post), not the thicker butt end that goes into the ground.
Check for a brand or mark that identifies the post. Our company is proud to put our brand on its posts. This brand is convenient should a warranty claim be necessary.
Check for a warranty. Posts manufactured and treated by Florida Fence Post Company, Inc. are backed by a 25-year limited warranty.
Purchasing Posts
Price is an important consideration, but only when combined with quality, treatment, and longevity. Our selling prices are competitive but typically not the lowest. That's because we do not cut corners, which will lessen your satisfaction. Treating practices vary, and they affect the life of a fence post.
There are no building codes or government regulations that mandate fence post quality; you have to protect yourself against poor products. Our decades of experience and our yearly volume of hundreds of thousands of fence posts assure you of a properly treated post at a price that offers value.
We stand behind our posts. See our 25-year limited warranty. This longevity will spare you needless labor costs for replacing cheap posts manufactured using ineffective procedures and inferior (if any) treatment standards.
Industry Standard for Posts
Standards for all treated wood products, including fence posts, are established by the American Wood-Preservers' Association (AWPA). This association consists of people representing preservative manufacturers, treating companies, users of treated wood, and research institutions. Members test, discuss, argue over, and eventually agree to the standards that they believe will result in effectively protected wood.
Agricultural fence posts are covered in Standard C16. This standard specifies permissible species, straightness, peeling, preservatives, and the required preservative retention. Retention is the amount of preservative retained in the assay zone of the wood. It is measured in pounds of preservative per cubic foot of wood (pcf).
For CCA-treated fence posts, Standard C16 requires 0.40 pcf.
Florida Fence Post Company, Inc. treats posts to this standard. Very few out-of-state post companies do. Furthermore, in order to combat potential damage in the humid climate and acidic soil of Florida, we treat it using the "full cell" method. Our experience shows that this is the way to produce long-lasting fence posts. It is why we can offer a 25-year limited warranty and why our posts are "the fence posts preferred by Florida cattlemen."
